electronic friendship

A friendship that is defined by communication ONLY via electronic devices. i.e. AIM, facebook, myspace, text messages, etc.
*phone calls may be an occasional part of an electronic friendship, however they are very uncommon.

Electronic friendships are typically found among high school or college students, who may even attend the same high school or college, yet choose to ignore one another in passing. The conversation remains smooth and concise via electronic devices, however face-to-face contact of any sort proves that a real friendship is truly not a possibility, and the awkward moments never cease to exist.

*an intimate relationship comprising of cyber sex and text message sex is not does not fall under the category of electronic friendship.
Joanne: You and CarlyBeth have such an electronic friendship. Do you two ever actually hang out?

Olivia: Umm, I dunno, I guess we both have our own cliques and neither of us want to stray from the norm that has been created for us.... you know?

Electronic Calender Phobia (ECP)

Electronic Calender Phobia (ECP) is a syndrome that occurs when older employees at a company resist using calendaring software - insisting on continuing their use of paper planners.
Employee 1: Oh my gosh, why can't Sally just use our calendering system to schedule meetings. She is always calling or emailing me to see if I have availability. "Um, check the electronic calendar"
Employe 2: Oh dude, she has a serious case of Electronic Calender Phobia (ECP) - she may never get rid of her old-school paper planner.

Electronic Arts

A crappy videogame company who's only good games were the old Medal of Honor games and Dead Space.

electronic towel snapping

Any kind of stereotypically male banter or sparring using the internal e-mail system and using ALLSTAFF to involve everybody, including sneaking into someone's office and using their e-mail account to send out embarrassing e-mails to the entire staff; from the habit of boys in high school locker rooms snapping towels at each others' butts. Also known as "e-snapping".
"sorry I was late," said James," It took me an extra ten minutes to clear my inbox of all the electronic towel snapping that has been going on between Lex and Tim."

Electronic Hangover

that late night crashing feeling one gets after pulling too many all-nighters staring at the computer screen. Symptoms include pounding headache, nausea, and dizziness, as well as mild hallucinations induced by the many colors constantly flashing from the screen. Also associated with video gaming, and often accompanied by dehydration brought on by excess consumption of energy drinks.
dude 1: duuuuude, i have the worst headache, and i've been all dizzy, nauseous and unable to work.

dude 2: think you may have pulled one all-nighter too many at the computer screen dude, sounds like an electronic hangover.
